What Austin is saying about new hybrid Whataburger and H-E-B

Once Austinites heard about a new H-E-B store opening featuring a 24-hour Whataburger drive-through, they had some spirited things to say. The new store will be located at 5000 Gattis School Road in Hutto. With the state’s dominant grocery store stocking Whataburger-branded items such as ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, jalapeño ranch, pork sausage and “Whatafries,” the team-up represents a new step in the relationship between these two Texas food giants.

The Hutto H-E-B is getting a convenience store with a Whataburger drive-through.
